Gravity Mage with Level-Up System

From MC's perspective:

Mystic ruins,

Looking down at the miserable figure. I see he lost his ability to move right now. Then I canceled my magic and walked toward him.

"What do you want?" Grant Downs asked in a painful voice.

For a moment the thought appeared in my mind. Before I wanted to kill him. But now that I think of it. He doesn't know my identity. So I decided to avoid unnecessary killing.

"Tell me about this ruin and the metallic mound," I said in a cold tone.

Grant Downs shuddered after feeling the terrifying gaze. He glances at the metallic mound before his gaze set on the stranger.

He knows it's impossible to live if he refuses to cooperate. He then slowly begins to answer.

"The metallic mound is said to be some kind of treasury room. Decades ago, one of our high-level mages had found some relics inside the metallic mound."

Then he shared secret information about the ruin.

"Relics," I muttered. My eyes shone with a bright light at the same time. I don't know why? But I have a vague feeling that metallic mounds might contain something important to me.

Then I turned toward him and asked again, "Tell me. How to open the metallic mound?" If what he says is true, then I should not waste any more time.

Grant Downs was frightened in his heart. "There is no key to the metallic mound. But as per our records, the metallic mound opens at a specific time in the day," He replied with a panic-stricken voice.

"No wonder," I said to myself. I wondered why there was no gate to this metallic mound. But the reason is actually this. Sure this place is quite mysterious ruins as its name suggests.

Then I decided to watch over this metallic mound until the specific timing. Then pushing down these thoughts. I walked back to the metallic mound.

Behind me, the Royal Force Wizard Grant collapsed in relief. He kept his trace of thought for survival. Now that he achieves that he faints on the spot.

After nearing the metallic mound. I looked back and saw the collapsed body of the Royal Force Wizard.

This guy? I frowned. I don't want to kill him. At the same time, I can't let this person go. I don't want this news spread to other wizards. It's better to keep this person hostage here.

After shaking my head, I moved closer to the metallic mound and placed my hand on the metallic wall.

Feeling the chills in my hand. I raised my eyebrows in surprise. To be honest, if this mound was movable. I could place this entire mound inside the Gregor Mansion.

But unfortunately, the whole base seems to be immovable.

Then I waited in the same spot standing.

Time passed in a blink of an eye,

After two hours, I see some changes happening in the metallic mound. I stood up straight and observed the surroundings for any movement.

I don't want to face the enemy at the last minute. Apart from the fainted body of the Royal Force Wizard. No one was in the vicinity.

Seeing that, a hint of relief flashes in my eyes. Then my gaze set on the metallic mound. Slowly, the patterns on metallic walls begin to activate with bright light.

The person's words seem to be true. I have been standing here for more than one hour. But the changes are happening now.

I'm curiously looking at the changes. Suddenly, a magical door appears in front of me. The sudden appearance caught me by surprise.

Then I calmed down and hurriedly stepped inside. Right after, the magic door disappeared and I found myself inside a spacious room.

The room was lit up with bright lights. I don't know where the source of power comes from. So I curiously looked around.

But the next scene made me stunned in disbelief. I see a pile of mana stones with different affinities around me.

There are bright red fire elemental mana stones. There are also pure blue water elemental mana stones. I also see green and brown colored mana stones. These mana stones were of elemental magic powers.

All of them were of high grade as well.

I recalled that person saying something about the treasury. This metallic mound is indeed the place of treasure. So I begin to place piles of mana stones inside the Gregor Mansion.

After one hour, I completely swept away the room. Right now there were no mana stones left in this room.

"I don't know how much I can earn with this mana stone collection," I said to myself. But the next second, a trace of disappointment flashes in my eyes.

I hoped to see some relics. But in the end, I came across high-grade mana stones in large quantities.

Sighing, I spent a few more hours inspecting the room. After seeing there was no hidden room or secret place. I stopped the investigation and decided to return.

But to my surprise, I couldn't find the exit. A sudden realization dawned upon me. That person didn't tell me how to leave this place. Don't tell me I have to wait for a specific time to return as well.

Time passed in a blink of an eye,

After two hours, the magical door appears again. Seeing that I sighed in relief. Now I can leave this empty place.

When I walked out. I see the guy hasn't woken up yet. But the triangular pendant on his neck caught my attention.

I almost forgot to snatch the pass from him. Then before leaving the place, I took the pass from him and stored it inside my storage ring.

The wizard's body was quite tenacious. Even though many of his bones were broken, there is nothing dangerous to his life.

Then I picked a different direction to walk further. On the way, I'm using similar tricks to clear all those hurdles. But I have yet to find something different.

It was nice to come across the metallic mound. But I'm hoping to find the relics which are far more useful to me.

Time went by,

After three hours, I stepped inside a different landscape. It's marshy terrain which is very damp. This place is different compared to the dense forest.

A trace of struggle appeared in my eyes. I don't know whether it is okay to cross this place. Somehow strangely, I haven't encountered any monsters so far. Which seems odd to me.

According to that Royal Force Wizard. The mystic ruin is a place with different terrain. And each terrain hides something related to the old era.

My eyes flickered with a cold glint. I feel like I have to search this place blindly again. Then I pushed down these thoughts before slowly walking inside the marshy terrain.

As I walked further, I noticed some changes on the ground. Small pebbles continued to vibrate for some reason. Is this because of my passive ability?

But the next moment, I found something else. This small movement was not caused by passive gravity power. But rather something is moving under the ground.

When this realization struck me. I stood in the same spot.

Rumble~

The noise continues to increase as time goes on. I knew whatever existence hiding underneath the ground already felt my presence.

But I hope it's not the 7th or 8th-order monster. Anything below 7th order existence, I can fight against it.

Crack~

The next moment, several long cracks appear on the ground. "Something is coming out," My expression becomes dignified.

Then I saw a giant hand rising from the cracks below. What type of monster is that? I hurriedly wanted to probe the monster's details.

"System, probe the target's details," I Instructed the system mind.

[Ding! Host's command is recognized.]

[Ding! The command is executed.]

[Status Panel]

[Target's Name: Earth Golem]

[Type: Elemental Puppet]

[Order: 5th order intermediate level]

[Strength: 450]

[Vitality: 443]

[Speed: 444]

[Stamina: 446]

[Skill: Destruction fist, Earth Punch, Heavy Stomp, Landslide.]

A row of information appeared before my eyes. Seeing that its 5th order enemy, I sighed in relief. But suddenly a strange glint flashes in my eyes.

"Puppet," I muttered to myself. It's not a monster but a puppet made by a certain wizard. I have read about puppetry before. It's also one of the ancient wizardry paths.

But what surprised me more than the incorporation of earth-elemental magic in the puppet. Which baffles me when thinking about it.

The wizard who built this puppet must be level-6 or above wizard. When I was lost in thought. The earth golem made a full appearance.

Its entire body looked brown. And the Golem's eyes were black. There was no emotional expression. The earth golem is a complete puppet.

When I'm looking up at this giant figure. The earth golem also inspects its surroundings. Finally, it set its gaze on me.

Seeing that my mouth curves into an arc. I want to control this golem and then put it inside the Gregor Mansion.

The earth golem's presence will be helpful for me in the future.
